Book Description
Heartfelt and irresistible—“a lovely, deeply moving story of loss and love and memory made real” (Diana Gabaldon, #1 New York Times bestselling author)—this enchanting debut follows a woman who travels back in time to be reunited with the mother she lost when she was a child. Every night, as Faye puts her daughters to bed, she thinks of her own mother, Jeanie, who died when Faye was eight. The pain of that loss has never left her, and that’s why she wants her own girls to know how very much they are loved by her—and always will be, whatever happens. Then one day, Faye gets her heart’s desire when she’s whisked back into the past and is reunited not just with her mother but with her own younger self. Jeanie doesn’t recognize grown-up Faye as her daughter, even though there is something eerily familiar about her. But the two women become close friends and share all kinds of secrets—except for the deepest secret of all, the secret of who Faye really is. Faye worries that telling the truth may prevent her from being able to return to the present day, to her dear husband and beloved daughters. Eventually she’ll have to choose between those she loved in the past and those she loves in the here and now, and that knowledge presents her with an impossible choice. If only she didn’t have to make it....

Pages : 368
Book Description
Faye, the middle child, was the scapegoat for her familys frustrations. She was physically and mentally abused, but despite their feelings towards her, she loved them unconditionally. Fayes first boyfriend raped her. That night she broke down sobbing to her mother. She was unexpectedly kind and gave Faye a cuddle. The next day she had a change of heart. Sex was never discussed, and cleverly her mother diverted responsibility by calling Faye a dirty slut. A couple of years later Faye met John. He was regarded as a Superhero, by her birth family for marrying the likes of Faye. Blessed with a girl then a boy; Faye thought she was in heaven. It went wrong when Fayes perfect husband started drinking most weekends. It was after a night out Faye's husband and Liz their best friend passionately embraced in-front of their partners and Johns father who was waiting to drive them home. They laughed at Faye, saying it was only a bit of fun, and she was being ridiculous. To John, it was nothing; however, it meant everything to Faye. He continued to drink, but Faye remained grateful. He was weak-natured; and sided with Faye's bullying family only a few months later. It left his wife exposed and vulnerable. Faye tried desperately to hold on to her dreams, determined to keep her precious family together. Circumstances forced John and Faye to separate. Faye made countless sacrifices, whilst John demoralised, intimidated and controlled her for eighteen years. It is after recovering from breast cancer, Faye realises how selfish to think so little of herself, when others hadnt survived. When her existence became threatened, her life increased in value, perhaps not to her family, but to her. Almost all her family rejected her, except one-man he never let her down.

Rethinking Possible
Author: Rebecca Faye Smith Galli
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1631522213
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
Becky Galli was born into a family that valued the power of having a plan. With a pastor father and a stay-at-home mother, her 1960s southern upbringing was bucolic—even enviable. But when her brother, only seventeen, died in a waterskiing accident, the slow unraveling of her perfect family began. Though grief overwhelmed the family, twenty-year-old Galli forged onward with her life plans—marriage, career, and raising a family of her own—one she hoped would be as idyllic as the family she once knew. But life had less than ideal plans in store. There was her son’s degenerative, undiagnosed disease and subsequent death; followed by her daughter’s autism diagnosis; her separation; and then, nine days after the divorce was final, the onset of the transverse myelitis that would leave Galli paralyzed from the waist down. Despite such unspeakable tragedy, Galli maintained her belief in family, in faith, in loving unconditionally, and in learning to not only accept, but also embrace a life that had veered down a path far different from the one she had envisioned. At once heartbreaking and inspiring, Rethinking Possible is a story about the power of love over loss and the choices we all make that shape our lives —especially when forced to confront the unimaginable.
